CHRONOLOGICAL RÉSUMÉ
•
This type of résumé is one the most commonly used, and therefore, the most
recognizable format by employers
•
The emphasis of this type of résumé is on your varied work history
•
Your work experiences are arranged in reverse chronological order (most recent
being first!)
•
This type of résumé always includes details such as:
¾ title of position held (i.e. waitress or camp counsellor)
¾ name of company/business where you worked
¾ length of employment (include years and/or months)
¾ what you did, with a focus on knowledge gained and skills developed or
enhanced instead of a simple listing of duties and responsibilities
•
Headings you might include with this style are:
¾ Job/Career Objective
¾ Profile/Highlights of Skills
¾ Education
¾ Related/Relevant Work Experience
¾ Other Experience
¾ Volunteer Activities
¾ Extra-curricular Activities
¾ Interests
